Noice. Use geizhals.De knock some money off that. Gpu alone is 368 using it

Swap case for nanoxia deep silence 3 if available. 63.33 better case.

Psu change to a be quiet system 7 700w Silver 83.

700w not overkill for that system?

I only mentioned the 700w, as it costs slightly less than his chosen 630w.

Overkill for that yes. If he adds another card might not.

16GB Ram might be too much for gaming.
8 should suffice.
Have a look at M.2 SSD

Thanks for the reply guys.

Was thinking I might get another 970 at the end of the year for my birthday so will the 700w PSU mentioned be enough?

Put 32GB RAM in it. Then make a ram drive, of about 4GB. Install Photoshop on the RAM drive. I have this setup in my rig. Photoshop loves it.
